Promising Methods for Increasing the Speed of Information Transmission in Meteor Communication Channels

Abstract

At present, the problems of stable communication in Arctic latitudes are relevant. The basic ways of communication used today are satellite and decameter communications, which allow transmitting information over long distances, but in turn, have several disadvantages. In this context, we should consider meteor communication channels in which the radio signal is reflected below the ionized layer. The current level of development of computer technology makes it possible to fundamentally change the structure of the meteor communication channel, methods for estimating the parameters of the communication channel and the process of generating channel signals with a given reception reliability. The article proposes promising areas of development and methods for implementing meteor communication channels, which can significantly increase the channel utilization rate. The use of multidirectional antenna array allows you to increase the signal-to-noise ratio on the receiving side without increasing energy costs. Also, the use of preliminary assessment of the formed meteor communication channel on the transmitting side will allow increasing the initial volume of transmitted data through the use of multi-position modulation at the moment when the electron density of the channel is maximum. The relevance of research in this direction is due to the increase in the implementation of remote interaction between geographically distributed subscribers using meteor infocommunication systems.
